    I'll second what @Flobee said... Myself, right now outside retirement accounts in the money I "play" with investing I'm at roughly.... 25% in stable interest earning vehicles (making around 4% at the moment. listed below as "savings") 23% in crypto, with that being a 3:1 ratio of BTC to ETH...

    I can attest that at least in my industry there's a corporate level push seemingly across every company I have buddies at to only travel when absolutely necessary to close a deal, and otherwise do more on zoom now. Whereas it used to be that they'd open encourage sales people and SEs to be...

    See the Dr today. There's a procedure I'm going to have to have, so we'll start off at mildly rustled (Lvl 1). Dr wants to do it tomorrow morning, cool, let's get this done with. As I'm leaving the office I call the wife and tell her and she reminds me that SHE has a Dr appointment...

    Yeah, if TSLA doesn't take a big hit off missing by that degree... Does that signal the "Markets move up even on bad news" point is near?

    This is completely true, because just as HMO insurance disconnected consumers from how much their medical care actually costs, the subsidized "Get a whatever phone FREE with your 4 year contract at genericwirelessprovider" deals have disconnected people from how much phones cost. And the...

    So.. are we finally starting to see BTC actually decouple from the stock market and start behaving more like gold? Unrelated but gave me a "reasonable chuckle"

    I think this earnings season will expose who are most exposed to China manufacturing (which we mostly know) and bring to light some which are better positioned to not live and die with the imports from China. Those in the latter category will hopefully see good results. In technology, I think...

    I think the bigger fact is that both of them will essentially have a "one generation head start", but FSD will be a commoditized option on virtually all vehicles within 10 years IMHO. Now, the other automakers might license the technology from one of these two, that's a distinct option.

    Yeah, I've been thinning since my 20's. I just embrace it now. Unrelated, as I mentioned a while back, I had an abscess on my hip that put me in a hospital overnight. It opened and drained (which is how these things have worked for me in the past), and usually the next step is the remaining...

    Yeah, I will hear something interesting come across it in the background every now and again. But it's mostly deep nerdery/geekery for very comic and gaming centric folks.

    Nerdrotic has an entire ecosystem of other blogger/vlogger/whatevers, including a couple women. They do this show called "Friday Night Tights", and it's big enough and has enough fans that they are apparently now doing in person meetups. If their reporting on it is accurate, they're getting...

    IIRC he's been in Vegas for a meet and greet with a bunch of his followers/fans. Which is why this had generic backdrop. He's pretty passionate about a few specific things, this was one of them, and there's no way he wasn't doing a video about the trailer drop. So it makes some sense.

    I've got one of these, but I just treat all slots as "am" since I only take prescriptions once a day. But yeah, you dread having one, you make jokes about needing one, but once you have one, you will end considering it like an extra vital appendage. heh

    Why would they put that level of effort in? If you're carpet bombing text smishing you just throw at everybody. I've gotten attempts like this involving "bank account access" for banks I have never had accounts with.

    I wish I didn't agree with your underlying assertion here as much as I do. That's one reason Trump needs to overload the thing and win fast if he's going to fight this fight. If it becomes really protracted then public opinion will hammer Trump, which he does care about.

    I'd say to dig out whatever is loose/soft and see if it's really a hole through, or just as you suspected a poorly mixed area. Once you know that patching shouldn't be too difficult.
